Was this game the Cleveland game earlier this year?

This game imitates all the factors of the Cleveland game earlier this year.

1. Flops like no other
2. Yao getting pissed (anyone see him at the end of the Jazz game?)
3. We see the Jazz again soon, although not in Houston.

What I'm saying is, although the Rockets are gonna play at Energy Solutions Arena again, are we going to dominate the Jazz later in the year?

we were better than cleveland even though we lost. yao knew that which is why he gauranteed a victory.

the jazz however are different, especially in solutions arena. besides from the fact that they've always had our number, i dont think anyone would gaurantee a win at salt lake city.

We usually absolutely destroy the Cavs, Jazz usually own us. So no, nothing alike.

They were both horrible officiated though, I'll give you that.

If the Rockets won this game, there would be lots of griping from Jazz fans about the officiating over how the Rockets could get 32 FT attempts to only 17 for the Jazz, yet the Jazz were the home team.

If the Rockets would have made more of their FTs, then it's like who knows what might have been.

Therefore, I wouldn't say this is anything close to the Cleveland game earlier this year.

I think someone should guarantee a victory right before dissing their fans and their city.

This loss pretty much mirrored every road loss i can think of. Yao gets in foul trouble, Yao has a bunch of turnovers and misses shots he normally makes. We miss alot of jumpers, and the other teams best perimeter player tourches us in the 4th quarter.
